New business idea: You pay me to bring my goats in a trailer to your ex’s house and I let them eat the landscaping and jump on his/ her car. I’m brilliant.

@HopeFloeck My neighbor has ~10 dogs that freely roam the neighborhood (2-3 mile radius) and I have another neighbor that has 2 that also freely roam and aren’t fixed. 😡 I don’t get it, I truly don’t.

We’re all on lunch spread out in different rooms and I pop into another for a second and my coworker goes “there’s cokes and rum in the back of my truck just so you know.”
Noted.

I had an interview tomorrow but to be honest I just didn’t feel like going. I canceled— I’m trying to remain positive but no one can talk about anything other than this pandemic and it’s just depressing.

everyone’s dated a guy who kinda looks like sid from ice age and it is what it is

My favorite part of spring!

[Life Of A Farm Girl @cornqueen13]

Kind of what I’m thinking. Maybe we just keep working on giving him the fresh start he deserves

[Life Of A Farm Girl @cornqueen13]

I think I found Charlie’s previous owner (the one who abandoned him). I want to find out about his past but I’m afraid if I contact her she’ll accuse me of stealing... Do I let sleeping dogs lie or confront her? (For the record I bought him off the barn owner where he was left).

This has been a long week. What do you do when your youngest farm dog and best goat herder is diagnosed with cancer? 😞

[Life Of A Farm Girl @cornqueen13]

@Shelb1dShelby Thank you 😊

[Life Of A Farm Girl @cornqueen13]

This past weekend I took Charles to a clinic... he decided he didn’t like being tied to the trailer and somehow Unclipped his lead and went on an unsupervised tour of the facilities... and then nearly got sprayed by a skunk. I was mortified. We can never go back.

Not in coveralls, who are we??

[Life Of A Farm Girl @cornqueen13]

Horse people: do you find it incredibly stressful to change vets/ farriers etc? I’ve used the same farrier for 17 years but didn’t feel he was doing a great job with Charlie’s hooves, so I found a different one. How do I break the news to the old one that he’s no longer needed?

[Life Of A Farm Girl @cornqueen13]

@goatlady84 Thank you! There are a few dandies in this first bunch!

[Life Of A Farm Girl @cornqueen13]

Yes, yes you all are the reason we can’t have nice things.

@BigDukeSix12 @LouiseCarduner Thank you for the follow !

[Life Of A Farm Girl @cornqueen13]

Today Charlie and I trailered to Ohio for a lesson in liberty training. His personality is starting to shine and it makes me really happy.

[Life Of A Farm Girl @cornqueen13]

@LouiseCarduner Thank you for the kind words!!

[Life Of A Farm Girl @cornqueen13]

Also this first batch of does is just plain mean.

[Life Of A Farm Girl @cornqueen13]

16 does dropped kids in 6 days... the barn has gotten a little crowded. #Theothergirlsdontlikemuddyfeet #SoManyPanelsSoLittleTime

My upmost goal for 2020 is to get out of this job. I am trying, have been trying for some time now, and just haven’t been successful so far.
